Now that the dust has settled on the #UCL final, we desperately need to realize our attack is the weakest of any serious top 5 team across any league in Europe (that includes #Saka as well).
We need to upgrade each one of them, including tactically. Onwards
#Arsenal
We deservedly lost to a far better team...all the boys are heroes in my eyes for the effort throughout this season. The dissection can wait for another night.
Let's celebrate the season that it's been and take the learnings #Arsenal
We may be a big club in England we have absolutely zero pull in Europe...we never get any 50-50 decision
..anyway on to pens, advantage #PSG given they have done less of the running so ostensibly much fresher in minds and legs ..on to one last time #COYG#UCL
On balance if at the beginning of the game we were told we are in extra time with #Demble and #Kvaratshkelia off the pitch we probably take it.
We need more from our forward players though -- nobody wants to rise to the occasion it would seem #Arsenal#UCL#COYG
You can never fault a young player for making a mistake but this strategy of low block was always asking extreme amounts of concentration from young players. All to do again. We need to show more ambition. #Arsenal#UCL
Just a thought: #Rice and #Saliba whose brilliance we probably haven't had to lean into yet and I suspect this half they'll have to step up and show their class to drag us #Arsenal#UCL
#Havertz though deserves his flowers (as does #Gabriel for some crazy good clearances and blocks).
We can't ease up though -- get a feeling we will need that 2nd goal #ARSENAL#UCL
#PSG though what a team with all sorts of attacking ideas
Expect them to trouble us more in the 2nd half hence so critical we keep our composure and concentration. This has just begun #ARSENAL#UCL
One half gone and we have managed to play to our strength driven by us taking our early chance.
Cmon boys more of this..we all believe in you #COYG#UCL
Huge test for us today. Nobody gives us a fighting chance, but history is made by contrarian bets. Cmon boys show us who you are and what you stand for. The time is now. #Arsenal#UCL
Last year #MLS was shaky, unsure, and kept making sub-optimal choices. This year he gets selected again in the same game on an even bigger occasion.
Can he rise to the occasion ? Can he leave an impression behind ? We will find out. Fingers crossed #ARSENAL#UCL
This has been years in the making. Feels like we should all write something profound to mark the occasion, but that can wait for another day.
For now -- We are the Champions.
That ought to do!!!!! #COYG#Arsenal
Functional win and that'll do I guess but we need to significantly improve our performance if we want to win the last one and make a statement in that #UCL final. On we go #ARSENAL
